Not boxed in.
Shoot, having sway there isn't a bad thing. Even in the form of puppet governments or having people in the legitimate government be blackmailed or turncoats is a great seed for any number of SLs & RPs. We can use them for minor raids, sting operations, attempted liberations. All kinds of things without having to throw down with the FO directly (which is something we are very much not capable of doing right now & which at least two clans would probably be against anyway).
Mandos deal better with 'planet that is (or is technically) under "enemy" control' than 'lazy planet that is technically an ally'.

Better just to say nope, don't have sway nor do I want sway over these planets.
And not entirely true, Admy. Mandalorians have attacked worlds cause they had the resources or a means of production that Mandos desired, whether they were under "enemy" control or just some random neutral world. Look at Fenel, a world known for its renowned technologists and shipwrights. It came under attack for this very reason and would later produce the Kandosii. Basilisk was attacked cause they were the creators of the Basilisk War Droid that the Mandalorians desired. Althiri was attacked cause it was viewed as a vital industrial asset for the Mandalorian war machine and whose ships were integrated into their navy.
Here is proof that you don't need an "enemy" to attack a world. Mandalorians don't necessarily work better with there being an established enemy. If it has resources and means that the Mandalorians desire, they will seek to take it. And I bet plenty of Mandalorians here would want to raid and attack worlds just cause they have something they want. Whether or not its controlled by an "enemy" faction or not.
I will say that you guys should do what you want, but that doesn't mean you necessarily need an enemy to attack a world. If a world has something that you, as Mandalorians, want, then go for it! My Imperials attacked Bastion cause it was a sign of Imperial legitimacy. They attacked the Chiss cause they had advanced technology. They attacked the Core to reclaim old Imperial worlds and gain new means of industry. None of which truly had 'enemy' controls. Don't need an enemy if it has resources, industry, or anything that can help the cause.
Edit: Best to say that Mandalorians are opportunists. Doesn't matter whether the action is good or bad, they exploit a situation in order to benefit themselves. And with all those unclaimed worlds around the MA territory, plenty of targets to raid and/or occupy for the Assembly's future.

Right in any case, I'd like to make a motion for a planetary raid. What planet I don't know as of right now, but I'm open to ideas. Clan Karr would be used as a Recon element, a special forces unit that would clear the way for the rest of the group.
We would need some more bodies for the raid itself, and a fleet in orbit. Any takers?

Count me in among the more bodies for the raid!

I've never been a part of a raid before, much less a Mandalorian raid. Count me in!

I can run logistical support for the raid, ensure everyone is on the same page. A coordinated effort will be the least costly to ourselves.

Mandalorian Protectors always ready and willing to serve!
You could also do it where a couple clans work together to raid one planet. Build up cooperation and friendly relations between the clans.

Personally, I'd like to see a number of raids (exact count depending on how many bodies we get) all launched at the same time, but toward different targets. I want to keep the numbers down to two-three people vs whoever is on the planet (if anyone). That way, we can hopefully avoid situations were one person with more limited time or energy bogs down the whole operation.

You went from wanting to do your own thing, which was having a border war with someone, to hoping onto the raiding 'bandwagon' in 16 posts...I think this is the fastest I have ever seen a change of heart.

I will take what I can get, & a border war is not that removed from a raid.

A border war is a collection of raids... basically the same thing. just ask the English, Welsh, Irish and/or Scotts.

Those of you representing the splinter group known as Death Watch, I have a proposition for you, if you are interested? Let me know here if you are interested, so I can see who to all include in a mass PM to all of you.
Thanks.

Seeing as everyone is on the bandwagon for some raids and possibly occupying some worlds, we should consider our objectives then!
Considering our location, we have many possibilities. Myrkr, Shili, and Obroa-Skai to the South and Southeast. To the West, Jabiim, Rhen Var, Raxus Prime, and Lianna. To the North, Dathomir, Yavin IV, and Mirial. Plenty of these worlds have resources we can gain by raiding or perhaps occupy due to their facilities such as Jabiim and Lianna. We also know that Obroa-skai will definitely have an enemy presence and is a place that one of our fellow Mandalorians wants to capture.

Ok, I'm counting six solid sets of boots for the ground (plus three that also can provide support, or only provide support). So Anyone object to three solid targets? Took me a moment to find this, but I knew I had read it somewhere in the last week (because this isn't the only place we have been talking about raiding places). Lianna has shipyards that we can steal material from. Jabiim has raw materials, Abraxin has swamps, so nothing of importance there unless we want to hunt stuff, Ossus probably has raw materials that can be raided for as well. Besides that, there is Myrkr, Shili, Thule, Yavin, and... that's really it. Those are pretty much the immediate worlds within reach to raid/occupy. In addition, Myrkr has natural resources that could be tapped (mostly in the form of native animals). My clan was helping to set up what was more or less an 'attack animal' ranch there as well (with the last Mand'alor), but it was contract work only & likely would have been left to seed with his disappearance. It was both local predators & some of the more nasty galactic ones as well. Imported from pretty much galaxy wide.

I hope you don't think I'm out of line pointing this out
But may want to also take into account what planets will be stops for the Great Hunt, Myrkr for example. If you all want to complicate things with a raid, that would add a curve ball most hunters probably wont be anticipating and would be a cool little danger that hunters would have to play around, but could also slow up SLs. Just a thought I had

That is a fair point, We would have to take into account the number of threads available on such worlds.
Myrkr for example has two threads on the surface of the planet. The raid could be focused on either the city or the open terrain, depending on which the hunters are currently using.

Already mentioned that in the Organization thread as Nicademus. Told Krai that we would likely stay out of whatever thread she would be hunting in just so that we wouldn't be interfering with that roleplay unless she wanted us to. So really, any planets we raid where the hunters are, priority response would be to stay out of the thread they are rping in out of respect. However, if they want some sort of interaction, we should be inclined to agree and make a compromise.
